Overview

Orbital is the AI platform for real estate legal work. Real estate shapes the world around us: our homes, our workplaces and our cultural landmarks. It’s the infrastructure that powers everyday life and is the world's largest asset class. Yet behind every single deal, real estate and legal teams work hard to navigate decades-old complexity; manually connecting documents, hidden obligations, geo-spatial context, and multiple parties into a path forward. We connect the legal and physical record, so that path is clearer than ever before. Our mission is to make real estate transactions faster, clearer, and less manual. Here, you'll be part of changing how the deals behind the largest asset class get transacted, and will help shape the future of real estate.

A bit about us

🚀 We’re building at the forefront of AI technology, without losing the deeply human expertise our clients depend on. 🏢 Orbital is built with former practising real estate lawyers and 250+ years of combined legal expertise. We're purpose-built for the complexity of real estate: accelerating due diligence, drafting and negotiation, and deal coordination with legal-grade precision. 💰 We've just raised a $60m Series B, led by Brighton Park Capital, to accelerate our global expansion – $75m raised to date. 🤝 We're trusted by 5,000+ real estate professionals, spanning UK Magic Circle and US Am Law 100 firms, to household names like M&S. Leading firms like BCLP, Orrick, Goodwin, Womble Bond Dickinson and Clifford Chance rely on Orbital to remove the busywork, freeing legal and real estate teams to focus on sharp judgment, standout client service, and closing deals faster. 💡 Working at Orbital means joining a bold, ambitious team, with the trust to take ownership and make a real impact from day one.

What you'll do

Own Orbital's editorial POV and content engine — opinionated, narrative-led, category-defining work, not commodity content.
Source material wherever it's strongest — expert input from our lawyers and product team, customer insight, or timely topics in the market — and turn it into compelling, distinctive content across formats (POV pieces, guides and reports, interviews, customer stories).
Own distribution as seriously as production — how each piece reaches the market and lands, across owned channels, social, earned and partners.
Turn content into pipeline: partner with demand generation and product marketing so content drives leads, meetings and influence, not just impressions.
Set and hold a very high bar across formats — long-form POV, thought leadership, customer stories, product narrative.
Measure what works — engagement, reach, and contribution to net-new and influenced pipeline.

Who we're looking for

A track record building a brand's editorial voice and POV — either as a senior B2B content marketer in a category-defining or technical/vertical company (ideally SaaS or AI), or as a journalist or editor with strong commercial instinct, ideally with exposure to legal, proptech, real estate or finance.
Distribution-first: you think about how content travels and converts as much as how it's written, with a demonstrable link between your work and pipeline.
An exceptional storyteller — you draw insight out of experts and timely topics and shape it into narrative that lands.
The ability to get credible in a technical category, fast. You'll be writing for magic-circle lawyers and in-house property teams, so direct real estate and/or legal experience or education is a significant advantage — and if you don't have it, you can show how you've ramped into a complex, expert-led subject before.
A very high bar for quality, especially written content.
Hands-on and high-ownership — you set your own priorities and operate well in a lean, scaling team.
Comfortable co-creating with subject-matter experts and turning their depth into accessible, opinionated work.
Genuine curiosity about our customers and the category we're defining.

Nice to have

Familiarity with SEO and emerging AI/answer-engine optimisation, and how content feeds owned-channel conversion.
Experience defining an editorial voice or POV from an early stage.

About Orbital

We're on a mission to make real estate transactions smarter, faster, and friction-free. Real estate is the world's largest asset class, yet the legal processes and tools behind it remain slow, manual, and underinvested. Lawyers must review dense documents line by line and piece together information across silos, all while clients demand faster, more transparent due diligence. That's where we come in. Orbital Copilot is the AI assistant built exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed with former practicing real estate lawyers, it accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal-grade precision. We've just raised a $60m Series B to accelerate our UK/US expansion. We're trusted by leading firms like Goodwin and BCLP to remove the busywork so legal teams can focus on what they do best: applying sharp legal judgment, delivering standout client service, and getting deals over the line faster. Working at Orbital means joining a team that's reimagining how real estate transactions get done - moving fast, working collaboratively, and giving people the ownership to make a real impact from day one.
